Passito di Pantelleria

White

From vines acquired on the island of Pantelleria in 2016, the family make this sweet wine from the Zibibbo (Muscat of Alexandria) grape. A small ‘pre-harvest’ of 30-50 litres is picked just after veraison, to inject more acidity into the final wine. Viscous marmalade, apricot and ginger wash over the palate, the 150+ g/l of residual sugar kept at bay by that wonderfully piercing acidity.
